Kevin Caeran Obituary

CAERAN Kevin M. Suddenly, of Dorchester, May 2, 2018. Kevin had a great sense of humor, was loving and caring, and, if he had it, would lend $20 to someone in more need. He was a classy dresser, loved wrestling and superheroes, and was a dancing machine. He enjoyed restoring furniture and he was doing BMX tricks long before they were popular. Most importantly, Kevin was a man of faith and a true dreamer. He was the beloved son of Marie E. (Johnson) Schallmo of Dorchester and the late Paul H. Caeran. Loving brother of Paul and his wife Tricia Caeran of Rockland, Debbie and her husband Michael Barbuto of Braintree, Jimmy Caeran of Dorchester, Candy and her husband Paul Souza of Braintree, Linda and her husband Gerald Sullivan of Braintree, and Kelley and her husband Jim Becker of Littleton. Survived by many nieces and nephews. Family and friends will honor and remember Kevin's life by gathering for a Funeral Mass in St. Margaret Church of St. Teresa of Calcutta Parish, Monday morning, May 14, at 11 A.M. Interment will be private. For directions and guestbook, please visit www.jmurphyfh.com. Arrangements by the Murphy Funeral Home, DORCHESTER.

I used see Kevin at the Aquarius night club in Quincy during it's heyday... during the magical 1980's :)... and Kevin stood out as a great kid, with a kind heart, and YES...
Kevin was a REAL DEAL DANCING MACHINE... he had endless rhythm. I extend my deepest and most sincere condolences to his family and dear friends... I apologize, I just saw this post today, so sadly I was unaware, and regretfully did not attend his celebratory mass at St. Margaret's... I really wish I was there to
honor this great person. I will although think of Kevin with special reverence going forward.
Be with our creator Kevin in peace and happiness my friend!
